Registration for the 2026 Summit will be made available this summer.
Summit Check-In will be in the Arlington Pre-Function area – 1st Floor past the Arlington Elevators.
Check-in will begin Thursday 8am and run through 8pm. Check-in Friday morning from 8:00am – 11:30am for late Thursday arrivals.
We suggest checking into your hotel rom first (Ground Floor), then stopping by the registration desk.
Spot Hero – www.spothero.com. Offers discounted parking options at hotels in the Crystal City area. You can use this system as a “guest” without creating an account. In the search box asking “where are you going,” type in “Crystal Gateway Marriott” and the search will provide options. Interestingly, it appears there are options AT the Crystal Gateway Marriott cheaper than the discounted rate of $40 the hotel provided to our group. No in-and-out privileges. Free cancellation up to the time your reservation begins. Reserve soon before prices go up or availability is gone.
DCA Airport parking – https://www.flyreagan.com/. DCA accepts reservations to park in their daily garages, which appears to be cheaper than at the hotel. No in-and-out privileges. Catch the hotel shuttle (or Honor Flight shuttle) at either Terminal 1 or 2 to get to the hotel after parking. Parking at the airport does fill up (especially being a holiday weekend), so reservations are highly recommended if you plan to park there. Discounted rates will go up as the date gets closer; and when the lots reach capacity, reservations will no longer be accepted. You may cancel your reservation for any reason, at any time up to 1 hour before the start of the reservation without charge.
Please note that the Crystal Gateway Marriott and Westin do not include breakfast in their hotel room rates. Click on the “Restaurant Options” tab for available options.
This information is not yet finalized for 2026.
We have reserved 2 Shuttle Buses running in a loop to provide access to lunch options in Crystal City. DC Trails will be the shuttle bus company and the drop off point will be Fashion Center Mall near Shake Shack. Buses will pick up/drop off in front of the Crystal Gateway Marriott from 11:30 a.m. – 1:15 p.m. Buses are not able to enter the hotel portico.
Vendors can sign up here for the 2025 Honor Flight Expo. If you are interested in being a vendor on Friday and Saturday (all day), please note this in your registration. Angela will reach out to you if you are selected for Saturday. There will be a $50 fee per for profit business and a $50 fee for any vendor requiring electricity at their table.
Due to our change in 2025 of the summit venue, we will not be offering any official tours/excursions. You are welcome to travel to the D.C. area early, allowing ample time to visit the Memorials and other sites in and around D.C.
